When I first woke up I felt immediately sick to my stomach. Nervous about the goodbyes and facing the reality of leaving my comfortable life in Canada for 6 months. It was a calm nervous but could feel my heart fluttering in my chest as I packed my bags in the car and left for the airport. The fam, Jeremy and I shared a good ol' A&W breakfast in the food court and then gave our hugs and kisses good bye at the security gates. It was a strong moment of realizing how important family is and how much they mean to me.
Sitting at the gate waiting to board the plane, I couldn't believe today is the day we leave! A day that I've drawn motivation from every 20 hour day that I worked. -kendal
Why we chose Pearl'd Moments
The word pearl came to mind for us because it metaphorically represents our motivation for this trip. The clams harsh outward appearance looks rough and lifeless, however inside lies one of natures most precious jewels. Each person in this world has their own appearance and story, yet inside we all posses the precious gift of life. It's something every human shares together across our entire world. Each of us are our own clam with different stories, but inside of us we all have reasons in our life that light us up and make us happy.
Moments simply reminds us that this is all we got. All we have is this moment, and then its gone. We have one life to live, so be courageous, be uncomfortable and do what truly matters to you.
